Casa Turrent 1973 Torpedo
- In stock, ready to ship
- Currently sold out
For decades, the Turrent family was known for two things: their Te-Amo cigar series, and producing some of the finest Mexican San Andrés wrapper leaf in the industry. Te-Amo - a very popular brand in North America in the 1990's - has seen its popularity muted in recent years. The good news is the Turrents have replaced it with the arguably superior Casa Turrent brand.
Released a few years after the debut of the Casa Turrent 1901 series, the 1973 was about showcasing Mexican Criollo leaf just as the 1901 was a showcase for San Andrés Maduro. The 1973 is loaded with Criollo leaf, including a Mexican San Andrés Criollo wrapper, a San Andrés Criollo binder and Nicaraguan and San Andrés Criollo fillers.
All this Criollo adds some earth and spice to the blend, but the smoker can also expect some light cocoa notes and an almond-like sweetness. This flavour complexity led to the 1973 Torpedo being honoured with a 94 rating and a number 14 spot on Cigar Aficionado magazine's top 25 list of 2020.
The 1973 Torpedo offers a burn time of approximately 75 minutes.
Size: 5½ x 50
